You may not HAVE a serial number. They were not required on rifles and shotguns until the 1968 Gun Control Act. I collect Mossbergs and Remingtons made in the 40s and 50s, and none have ever had a serial number. As far as age, some guns can only be dated to the range of years they were made. Value is driven by condition- you can check some of the on-line gun auction sites, such as gunbroker or auctionarms, and check COMPLETED auctions for rifles similar to yours.
It should be on the bottom of the barrel.
Stevens bolt-action with a cylinder.... What are all the markings on the gun? sales@countrygunsmith.net
Serial numbers were not required before 1968. If it has one, check under the forearm, on the barrel and on the action.
guns made in 1950 to 1960's had no serial numbers.
NO
it was probably made in the 1960's era, many had no serial numbers, mossberg made most of them.
Serial numbers were not required before 1968. Some makers sn'd and some didn't.
Not until required by law in 1969.
Serial numbers were not required at that time.
Serial numbers were not required prior to 1968.
Not if they were manufactured prior to 1969.
These savage/stevens model 94c were made from 1929-1942.long before serial numbers were mandated by the gun control act of 1968.So there is a strong possability that your stevens does noy have a serial number.
